Answer:

Reciprocal cross

Explanation:

a reciprocal cross is a breeding experiment designed to test the role of parental sex on a given inheritance pattern. In this type of test cross, male of one genotype and female of different genotype are  crossed and the opposite is true as well. ( i.e the female of one genotype and male of different genotype are crossed.)

As we can see in the male Flagus fly with the Barkus phenotype is  being crossed with a female with the wild-type phenotype.

In the second test, we can see that the opposite is true of our first statement where the female Flagus fly has the Barkus phenotype and the male has the wild-type phenotype after being crossed again thereby reversing the genotype.

Atoms with a low ionization energy give up their outer valence electrons with ease true or false
umka2103 [35]

Answer: The given statement is true.

Explanation: Ionization energy is defined as the amount of energy required to remove an electron from the outermost shell of an isolated gaseous atom.

General equation of ionization energy is given by:

X(g)\rightarrow X^+(g)+e^-

  • If the outermost electron is loosely bound to the nucleus which means that the electron can be easily removed form an atom, it will require less amount of ionization energy.
  • And if the outermost electron is tightly bound to the nucleus which means that the electron cannot be removed easily from an atom. And hence, it will require more ionization energy.

Hence, the given statement is true.

How does the recesive sickle-cell allele stay in the gene pool
Zina [86]

Answer:

Because natural selection selects for it. Thus it persists.

Explanation:

You have to understand heterozygote advantage. Basically, it's where heterozygotes have an advantage over homozygotes. In the case of sickle cell disease, heterozygotes have an advantage, and natural selection favors whatever is advantageous. Thus, because heterozygotes each have one recessive sickle-cell allele, as natural selection favors the heterozygotes, the recessive sickle-cell allele persists and remains in the gene pool.

What is mostly the reason of an organism having lipids in its body
atroni [7]

The most reason for an organism having lipids in its body is to provide energy to the body. The fat molecules in the lipids can supply more energy gram than carbohydrate molecules. The fat molecules are composed of carbon (C), hydrogen (H), and oxygen (O) atoms. I hope this will help!! Have a great day.

What are the items that attach on the inside of the mineral to give the mineral its shape
Tom [10]

Answer:

Molecules.

Explanation:

Molecules are the items that attach on the inside of the mineral to give the mineral its shape. The molecule of a mineral is a crystal three-dimensional regular structure (arrangement) of chemical particles that are bonded together and determines its shape.

Due to the fact that, these molecules are structurally arranged or ordered and are repeated by different symmetrical and translational operations they determine the shape of minerals.
